SpicyChat is available on **mobile devices**, but availability differs between iOS and Android.

* **Android**: An official SpicyChat app is available via direct [APK download](https://spicychat.ai/download) from our website

### Android Devices

SpicyChat offers an official Android app that can be downloaded directly from our website. While it is not available on the Google Play Store, the APK provided on our site is the official SpicyChat app and receives the same updates and support.

### iOS Devices (iPhone & iPad)

SpicyChat does **not** have a native iOS app on Apple App Store.

However, you can still add SpicyChat to your home screen and use it like a regular app. This creates a full-screen, app-like experience without downloading anything from the App Store.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you installed SpicyChat from the App Store **prior to its removal**, you may continue using it.\
However, that version is no longer updated and offers a degraded experience.\
We recommend adding the web version to your home screen for a better app-like experience.&#x20;
{% endhint %}
